Charlotte, NC — The ACC conference’s title games on December 4, 2010 and December 3, 2011 will be held at Bank of America Stadium, home of the NFL’s Carolina Panthers and the Meineke Car Care Bowl.
“Charlotte is delighted to have been chosen to host the 2010 and 2011 ACC Football Championship Games,” said Tim Newman, CEO of the Charlotte Regional Visitors Authority.
“With many amenities coming on line by 2010 including the NASCAR Hall of Fame and several new hotels and entertainment venues within walking distance of Bank of America Stadium, ACC football fans will have a great time in Charlotte for those games.

NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS
Spring practice starts: March 15
Spring game: April 10
What to watch:
• Quarterback T.J. Yates. It’s his job to lose, and the coaching staff still has confidence in him, but Bryn Renner is waiting in the wings, and Braden Hanson will also be given an opportunity. The staff is looking for the offense to improve its passing efficiency and cut down on turnovers.
• The offensive line. It was a patchwork effort in 2009, thanks to injuries and inexperience, and will be a major key in how much UNC improves offensively this year. The Heels have to replace two starters, and Jonathan Cooper is likely to move from guard to center, and right guard Alan Pelc will miss spring drills while recovering from shoulder surgery.
• Defensive line tweaks. There aren’t many questions on a defense that should be one of the best in the country, but somebody has to replace Cam Thomas and defensive end E.J. Wilson. Tydreke Powell is the frontrunner to take over at defensive tackle and Quinton Coples at defensive end. Both were backups last year at their respective positions.

CHAPEL HILL, NC - Sophomore forward Ed Davis, North Carolina’s leading rebounder and shot blocker and second-leading scorer, will be sidelined for at least six weeks with a broken bone in his left wrist, head coach Roy Williams announced this morning.
Davis broke the lunate bone in left wrist when he fell to the floor in a mid-lane collision with 9:16 to play against Duke on Feb. 10 and the game tied 43-43. He had the wrist taped and re-entered the game but did not score again. He tied his career high with six blocked shots against the Blue Devils.
Davis’s wrist will be immobilized for at least the next six weeks. Tests on Thursday revealed the fracture but showed no ligament damage. Surgery is not planned at this time.
“We’re all extremely disappointed for Ed and for our entire team,” says Williams. “It’s hard to lose any starter, but when you lose someone likely for the rest of the season who does so many different things for your team it’s a significant loss. He’s our second-leading scorer, top rebounder, shot blocker and field goal percentage shooter, so it’s a huge blow to our team. However, we have to band together and try to overcome this latest adversity caused by injury.”
Davis is one of three Tar Heel post players who are currently sidelined due to injury. Sophomore Tyler Zeller has been out of action beginning with the Clemson game on Jan. 13 with a stress fracture in his right foot. Zeller was cleared for straight-ahead running and on-court drills on Feb. 8 but is out until at least next week. Freshman Travis Wear missed the Duke game and is out indefinitely with a severely sprained left ankle.
Davis is averaging 13.4 points and 9.6 rebounds per game, has blocked 64 shots and is shooting 57.8 percent from the floor this season. He leads the ACC in blocked shots, is second in rebounding and would be first in field goal percentage but he has not attempted enough shots to qualify for the conference leaders.
North Carolina plays host to NC State today (Saturday, Feb. 13) at 4 p.m.

North Carolina (13-11, 2-7) will face NC State (14-11, 2-8) in a battle of two teams trying to break a losing streak. Since their last meeting on January 26th, neither team has won an ACC game and Carolina has lost four straight. NC State lost 72-52 at home on Wednesday night to Virginia Tech. North Carolina lost that same night to Duke, 64-54. Carolina has dropped four home games in a row and the longest-ever streak is five straight, which happened in 2002. Carolina leads the series with NC State, 141-72, and has won seven in a row. Before the game begins, Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington will have a ceremony recognizing their jerseys being honored.
Ellington (2009 Final Four Most Outstanding Player) and Lawson (2009 first-team All-America and ACC Player of the Year) will see their jerseys honored in the Smith Center rafters during a pregame ceremony at approximately 3:40 p.m. on Saturday, 20 minutes before tipoff.
Honored jersey numbers (such as those of Ellington, Lawson and Donald Williams, who will be honored on March 2 during the Miami game) can be worn again by future players. Retired jersey numbers (like that of Hansbrough - 50) will never be worn again by future players.

No time better than tonight for the UNC Tar Heels basketball team to overcome their terrible 2010 slump as they face a tough Duke Blue Devils team at the Dean Dome in Chapel Hill.
Several freshman get to experience their first big-time rivalry game against the Blue Devils, so it will be up to the Tar Heel seniors Ginyard and Thompson to lead their team with 110% hustle, tough defense and offensive efficiency (ie NO TURNOVERS) that the program has displayed over its 100 year history.
With the defending National Champion Tar Heels in jeopardy of missing the NCAA tourney, signature wins over ranked teams like Duke will be the key in keeping their post-season hopes alive.
GO HEELS!
